NaBloPoMo uh-oh

Yeah, so since I'm a member of NaBloPoMo, I thought it would be entirely appropriate to completely forget to post yesterday. Oops.

It's been a hectic two weeks since the last time I posted. A general summary:

Monkey Man finally seems to be making some improvement, thanks to lots of steroids. Unfortunately, said steroids made him behave like Skrat in Ice Age. I'm just sayin', not a good thing.

Work sucks. We don't have much work going on and the rumors are flying about potential layoffs. I believe we're the last GC in town to start laying people off, which is kind of nice but scary too. Having been here 12 years this coming Tuesday and being pretty overpaid makes me nervous. Really nervous.

I had to make a homemade Halloween costume for the Fairy Tale parade at Monkey Man's school. Thanks to WalMart, he picked out some black and grey fur that ended up exploding all over my kitchen, the "no sew" instructions sucked so bad that I eventually broke out a stapler to put the stupid thing together, and my son ended up looking like a demented chinchilla rather than what we were aiming for - the Big Bad Wolf.

I have a race with Maven in two weeks and I am not ready. Not at all. I am scared out of my mind that I will end up dying because I am such a wuss.

So anyway, a lot more has happened but in the spirit of NaBloPoMo, I'm saving it for posting material. If I remember to post.
